Chapter 54 Chapter 54 The Little Ancestor and the Naughty Kids
The moon in the night sky is very faint, slanting down in the night sky. At the same time, in the east of the sky, the light from the sun has broken through the black barrier and is shining on the sky.
Nakajima Atsushi and Akutagawa Ryunosuke were running fast in a dim alley, with several hideous ghosts whose true appearance could not be seen clearly chasing them.
"Tsk, what a hassle."
Turning his head slightly to glance at the cannibal following behind him, Akutagawa Ryunosuke smelled the rotten smell in the air, felt a little itchy in his throat, and the urge to cough rose up, making him subconsciously reach out and cover his mouth with his hand.
Rashomon behind him stretched out his sharp claws, and just like before, he tore the pursuing cannibal into two halves cleanly and efficiently, and carefully prevented the group of guys from approaching his weak master.
"It's no use, Akutagawa. Those guys are simply impossible to kill."
Nakajima Atsushi, already half transformed into a white tiger, ran furiously, pulling Akutagawa Ryunosuke with one hand. The winding alleys ahead were reflected in his clear eyes. "Even if I tear them to pieces, they'll return to their original form."
If it weren't for this reason, the two of them wouldn't be running away here now.
"You're so long-winded, you tiger-man!"
Gritting his teeth and suppressing the urge to cough, Akutagawa Ryunosuke stared intently at the ogre before him, his brow furrowed. The hair hanging down his cheeks swayed slightly as he ran. "I didn't expect to kill them with just this kind of attack."
Before this, he even tried to use Rashomon to devour the disgusting things in front of him.
As a result, if Rashomon eats them, these things will not be able to escape again, but Rashomon will suffer from indigestion!
As a mafia member who used to throw any garbage or food he disliked to Rashomon, Akutagawa Ryunosuke had always assumed that his Rashomon could eat anything, given his digestive function. That was until he saw his Rashomon nearly throw up his food half an hour ago.
Akutagawa Ryunosuke: ...Rashomon, are you still picky about food?
Rashomon was so aggrieved that he couldn't speak: Although theoretically I can eat anything, it doesn't mean that I can psychologically eat this kind of stuff!
Akutagawa Ryunosuke, you are simply abusing superpowers!
After hearing what Akutagawa Ryunosuke said, Nakajima Atsushi fell silent, obviously thinking of the Rashomon stomach upset scene that had just shocked him.
"...Well, there's nothing we can do now."
Glancing at the pale-faced Akutagawa Ryunosuke, Nakajima Atsushi simply transformed his entire body into a white tiger. "I'm going to speed up, Akutagawa, hold on tight."
"roar--"
A tiger roar suddenly rang out, filling the sky. The white tiger leaped out of the darkness and instantly left the cannibal that was chasing it far behind.
Akutagawa Ryunosuke reacted quickly, lowered his body, and grabbed Nakajima Atsushi's tiger hair tightly. His expression became even uglier - the sudden acceleration made him feel nauseous for a moment.
After finally suppressing the feeling of nausea, Akutagawa Ryunosuke looked up and saw the sun rising.
“Gu——!”
Suddenly, screams came from behind. Akutagawa Ryunosuke turned around and saw that the skin of the group of immortal cannibals slowly melted away as if corroded by sulfuric acid when exposed to sunlight. Then the irrational cannibals finally showed their fear and shivered in the darkness under the eaves.
"Human tiger."
Finally, a smile appeared on his lips. Akutagawa Ryunosuke transformed Rashomon into something like a chain and lashed it towards the cannibal: "I found a way!"
Rashomon grabbed the ogre tightly and pulled it into the sunlight.
"Kill them!"
The dark red Rashomon surged out from behind Akutagawa Ryunosuke like a tide, or like a ferocious beast that finally found an opportunity, and pounced on the hiding cannibal.
Although Nakajima Atsushi and Akutagawa Ryunosuke were once considered sworn enemies, they had a strong rapport. With just a glance, Nakajima Atsushi understood what Akutagawa Ryunosuke was planning. Then, Baihu coordinated a leap and landed on the roof, turning around and rushing towards the cowering ogre.
"learn!"
So, when the Demon Slayer Corps got the news and rushed to the scene, they saw a group of demons hanging under the eaves waiting to bask in the sun. There was also a white tiger below them watching them and not letting them run away. Not far away, a young man in a windbreaker was holding a few demons in his left and right hands, waiting to hang them on the eaves.
Demon Slayer Corps: ...Sorry, goodbye.
It was as if we were fake ghost hunters whose jobs had been snatched away once again.
"Ah, Akutagawa, someone's coming."
Baihu raised his head and looked at the people in front of him. After confirming that they were human, he said to the black-clothed boy over there, "They are human."
Demon Slayer Corps: ? ?! Wait, wait! The White Tiger has become a spirit?!
"Nakajima Atsushi and Akutagawa Ryunosuke?"
Mori Ogai, who had been kicked out of the house to help with unpaid labor, poked his head out and looked at the man and tiger in front of him in surprise: "What a coincidence! I was just about to look for you, but you two ran out on your own."
Nakajima Atsushi and Akutagawa Ryunosuke: Ah, what a coincidence.
but……
Looking at Mori Ogai, Nakajima Atsushi and Akutagawa Ryunosuke always felt that the other party did not seem to think so from the bottom of their hearts, and even felt that it was normal for the other party to put the blame on them.
"Hahaha, but since you two are here, let's go find Bai Lan and the others first."
Mori Ogai, who finally got the chance to skip work, scratched the back of his head and said, "You two are the only ones missing." As for Muzan Kibutsuji... who cares? He won't die anyway.
Just as Mori Ogai, Nakajima Atsushi and Akutagawa Ryunosuke set out to return, on the other side of the city, Hantengu received the news and passed the information back to Infinite Castle.
"Demon Slayer Corps Headquarters..."
Muzan Kibutsuji pondered for a moment, then decided to go there himself and rejected the requests of demons such as Mingnu and Yuhu.
"Nonsense, since we've already found our target, these guys are of no use anymore. Why don't we just run away and wait for their real boss to find us?"
He had no intention of fighting with anyone. If he had that much time, he might as well go and reunite with his mother.
Muzan Kibutsuji, who made full use of the ghosts, had a very good plan. He even kept a trick up his sleeve before he set off, thinking, "In case my mother needs someone to run errands for her in the future."
So, Muzan Kibutsuji just said, "You guys continue as usual and wait for my next order," and then he patted his butt and left quickly.
The ghosts were unaware that the person they were facing was not their own boss: The boss is gone.
Although they were very grateful that they no longer had to work overtime, they were reluctant to leave work because their boss was in such a good mood these days.
No, it’s not that they like working overtime under a good-tempered boss, but they are afraid that the next time they meet their boss, he will be in that moody state again.
#Workers have no right to choose#
#Working ghosts don’t have ghost rights#

"So, this is what you experienced before joining the Demon Slayer Corps?"
After listening to the stories of the three cubs in front of him, little Wu Wan touched the head of Nakajima Atsushi beside him, and even seemed reluctant to leave when he left - it is really rare to see such a well-behaved and cute large white cat that lies down and allows you to pet it.
And, most importantly, Nakajima Atsushi's fur feels really comfortable to touch.
Fluffy, soft and a little warm.
Nakajima Atsushi rubbed along Xiao Wuhuan's fingers, and when he reacted, he froze, then silently buried his head in his claws: Damn it, my instinct took over and I couldn't control myself.
Fortunately, not many people noticed Nakajima Atsushi's actions.
Except for Muzan Kibutsuji.
If you ask the reason, it’s probably because I feel unbalanced... ?
Because, even when Nakajima Atsushi came to the Demon Slayer Corps in the form of a tiger, he did not encounter the tragic experience of being surrounded and almost chopped to death with a knife.
As an unlucky guy who lives in the same world as the Demon King, Muzan Kibutsuji refuses to recall the scene he faced the moment he stepped into the Demon Slayer Corps headquarters.
The dark history of being pointed at and nearly chopped off by a group of knife-wielding tough guys (?)...
Thinking of this, Muzan Kibutsuji glanced at the Demon Slayer Corps members who were sitting together nearby and said "tsk". Although the other party was apologizing to him sincerely, Muzan Kibutsuji's expression was still very sour.
#Don't even think about it, I can never forgive you for this kind of thing#
"Muzan, you've met all those upper-rank demons, right?"
Xiao Karasuma tapped the table with his fingertips and looked at Muzan Kibutsuji thoughtfully: "And those upper-rank demons can't find the difference between you and the Demon King Muzan Kibutsuji of this time and space."
"really."
Muzan Kibutsuji nodded and said, "The ghosts here can't tell the difference between me and the Ghost King. Not only that, when I saw that group of man-eating ghosts, some knowledge automatically emerged in my mind. It was like instinct. I knew that they feared me, they were in awe of me, and that I wield power almost as great as that of the Ghost King."
This is also why he was able to know what Yu Hu was thinking.
"You said that those ghosts couldn't tell the difference between you and the real Ghost King, right?"
Bai Lan, who had been sitting quietly by the side, suddenly asked, "Those ghosts don't have any suspicions about you, right?"
"right."
Although he was not quite sure what this black-cutting guy was thinking, Muzan Kibutsuji thought that he would not be tricked, so he nodded and answered his question.
"Ah, don't you think this is funny?"
Bai Lan held her cheek with a smile on her face. Dazai Osamu, who was sitting next to him with a bored look on his face, suddenly understood what Bai Lan was thinking, and a mischievous smile gradually appeared on his face.
"Yeah, that's interesting."
Sitting up suddenly, Dazai Osamu gestured with his hands. "Think about it, isn't this the scenario where the enemy's undercover agent turns out to be our boss? In this way, the positions between the Demon Slayer Corps and the demons have also been reversed. It's no longer the Demon Slayer Corps who are in the open and under the control of the demons everywhere."
Although he was not yet the leader who controlled Yokohama, Mori Ogai also understood at this time.
"That's right."
The few people who had cut through the black smiled at each other: "We can use this opportunity to weaken the enemy's strength first, and then destroy their lair in one fell swoop and take down the whole thing."
Besides, it’s not them who are going to the Infinite City to cause trouble, and the first one to attract hatred will be Muzan Kibutsuji, so why not do it?
After listening carefully to the plan of this group of black mud elves, Muzan Kibutsuji had a blank expression: Although I was not the one who was cheated, I still want to say that I advise you to be kind.
#Even during the Heian-kyō period, I wasn't as cruel as you guys#
Demon Slayer Corps: Can we still do this? Yes, absolutely! Demons don't have human rights anyway!
Kokarasuma: Interesting!
Muzan Kibutsuji: ...Ah, this... Since Mother is interested, isn't it just about going to Infinite City to kill ghosts for fun? Let's go, I can leave now!
The Demon King Muzan Kibutsuji suddenly felt a chill on his back:?
So, on this night, a group of upper-rank demons were summoned to the Infinite Castle again.
"Sir, what is the matter that you summoned us this time?"
The demons lowered their heads respectfully, waiting for Muzan Kibutsuji's orders.
After thinking about the script provided by the group of black cutters, Muzan Kibutsuji was silent for a moment, and then said calmly: "For the sake of my plan and great cause, your performance evaluation and work tasks will be changed."
The ghost who didn’t understand anything:???
"From today on, every ghost needs to memorize the employee code of conduct."
With a paralyzed face, Muzan Kibutsuji threw a pile of booklets to the demons.
When the jade pot was opened, the first line of characters he saw were: Turn over a new leaf and become a new ghost.
Socialist values should be memorized in mind.
ghost:? ? ?
What the hell is going on?!
Boss, are you finally crazy?
-----------------------
The author has something to say: Wuzhan: Come, follow me and read, "Socialist Core Values"
ghost:……
I want to quit my job
